I used jasc animation shop which comes with Jasc Paint shop pro. They are animated gifs.
They are easy (relatively) to make. They go by the old flip movie theory where you have a book of pictures where each picture is a little different than the last and if you leaf/flip through them fast enough it looks like the picture is moving. Mine, for instance, is actually 5 separate images sequenced and looped such that when saved with a program that makes animated gifs (just do a search for animated gif at download.com) they look like someone is revving the motor. More time consuming than difficult.

Steve gave a very good description of the process. I used ImageForge for mine. I think you can find it on ZDNet.

Mike, If that is not new, that's the first time I noticed it. I can't stare at it w/o cracking up. Nice work.

You never would have seen it on this site....it was on another. I had one earlier that offended someone(s) and replaced it with this.....some people need a laxative.
